Grilled Orange Ginger Pork Tenderloin

Grilled Orange Ginger Pork Tenderloin

Yield: 4 Servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Additional Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

♥ RECIPE & IMAGE BY: AIPRecipeCollection.com ♥ This Asian-inspired meal is fast, easy and AIP elimination stage compliant. Easy grilled veggies and our Fennel Citrus Salad on the side make it worthy of Sunday supper.

Ingredients

Marinade

Instructions

  1. Thaw your truLOCAL pork tenderloin in the refrigerator overnight or
    defrost in its packaging in cold water.
  2. Mix all marinade ingredients together in a shallow glass dish. Arrange tenderloin in a single layer and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for one hour, or up to 24 hours. For most flavorful results, turn the tenderloin halfway through the marinating time.
  3. Bring pork to room temperature approximately 15 minutes before grilling, this will help ensure your meat cooks more evenly.
  4. While the pork is coming to room temperature, prepare this easy Fennel Citrus Salad - click here for the recipe.
  5. Preheat and outdoor grill to high heat.
  6. Remove pork tenderloin from marinade and place on pre-heated
    grill. Season with salt and pepper. Grill over high heat until browned on all sides.
  7. Reduce grill to medium heat, cover and continue grilling, turning and moving until pork reaches internal temperature of 145 F. (Approximate cooking time will be about 15 minutes. Depending on your grill, you may need to reduce the flame and/or cook over indirect heat to ensure the pork is evenly cooked and does not burn.)
  8. Once pork reaches desired internal temperature, remove to plate,
    tent with foil and allow to rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to settle back into the meat.
  9. While the meat rests, grill your choice of vegetables as a side - we suggest Baby Bok Choi and Green Onions or Leeks - follow this easy recipe for AIP Grilled Vegetables.
  10. Drizzle pork with the Honey Lime Dressing from the Fennel Salad.

AIP Grilled Chicken and Romaine with Creamy Avocado Caesar Dressing

Grilled Chicken & Romaine with Creamy Avocado Caesar Dressing

Yield: 4 Servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Additional Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

♥ RECIPE & IMAGE BY: AIPRecipeCollection.com ♥ Our quick and easy twist on a classic with a creamy AIP Caesar dressing that doesn't involve coconut! Keep it simple or dress it up!

Ingredients

Marinade :

Creamy Avocado Caesar Dressing :

Instructions

  1. Thaw your truLOCAL chicken breasts in the refrigerator overnight or defrost in their packaging in cold water.
  2. Mix all marinade ingredients together in a shallow glass dish. Arrange chicken in a single layer and allow to marinade for a total of 30 minutes (15 minutes in the refrigerator and 15 minutes at room temperature – see below. (NOTE: Do NOT over-marinate your chicken or the proteins will begin to break down due to the acidity of the marinade.)
  3. While your chicken is marinating, prepare the dressing.
  4. Add all dressing ingredients to a deep bowl or large liquid measuring cup and blend well using a stick/immersion blender. If your dressing is too thick, blend in ½ tsp of water (or additional lemon juice – test for flavor before you decide) at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  5. Refrigerate and allow the flavors to meld. (NOTE: you can make your dressing ahead and store in the refrigerator as the lemon juice will keep the avocado from browning.)
  6. Trim and discard the root end of the romaine lettuce, removing only as much as necessary so the head remains intact.  Cut the romaine in half lengthwise and rinse under cold running water (do not soak). Wrap the romaine in paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to remove excess water.
  7. Bring chicken to room temperature approximately 15 minutes before grilling, this will help ensure your meat cooks more evenly.
  8. Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat.
  9. Remove chicken breasts from marinade and place on pre-heated grill. Season with salt and pepper. Place halved or quartered lemons cut side down on grill.
  10. Allow chicken breasts to cook over high heat until they release easily from grill, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken breasts over, season again with salt and pepper and allow to cook on second side until chicken releases easily from grill.  Reduce flame or move chicken
    to cooler spots on your grill to avoid burning or flareups.  
  11. Continue grilling lemon cut side down as chicken cooks. Cook lemon until slightly softened and grill marks have formed, about 5 minutes. Remove lemons from the grill and let stand.
  12. Continuing grilling chicken, turning and moving until cooked through and an internal temperature of 165F has been reached. (NOTE: If your chicken breasts are very thick and they begin to char or become over cooked on the outside, it may be necessary to cut them in half and place the uncooked,  center cut on the grill or to flatten slightly before grilling. We found our truLOCAL boneless skinless chicken breasts to be the perfect size for grilling – no cutting or pre-flattening was required.)
  13. Remove chicken from grill and allow to rest, tented with foil, for
    a few minutes prior to slicing. This allows the juices to settle back into the chicken.
  14. While the chicken is resting, place the washed and dried romaine hearts cut side down on the grill. Leaving lid open, cook until grill marks form, about 3 minutes. Gently turn the lettuce using tongs, and grill for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from grill. (NOTE: This method infuses a smoky flavor, but take care not to over-cook the lettuce, it should be lightly charred but NOT cooked through, retaining its fresh salad crunch.)
  15. Plate your grilled romaine heart and top with sliced grilled chicken breast, a drizzle of AIP Avocado Caesar Dressing and the grilled lemon on the side. Add a squeeze of grilled lemon to your salad and enjoy!

Notes

But what about the bacon, croutons and Parmesan for this Caesar?

Our goal with this dish was to give you an easy recipe that would get you off your feet quickly, so instead of bacon we're infusing the romaine with that smoky flavor from the grill.

Not afraid of a few extra steps in the kitchen? Feel free to add some AIP compliant bacon, croutons and Parmesan crumbles to this Caesar!

Where do you find these things?

Bacon - Read more about compliant bacon here.

Parmesan Crumbles - Check out this recipe, it sounds amazing!
(Be sure to use NON-Fortified Nutritional Yeast - you can learn more about that here)

Croutons - Try these Casabi crackers! So good!

AIP Grilled Pork Ribs with Maple Glaze with Grilled Leeks and Radicchio

AIP Grilled Pork Ribs with Maple Glaze

Yield: 4 Servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

♥ RECIPE & IMAGE BY: AIPRecipeCollection.com ♥ Drool worthy ribs the whole family will love! Shhh! They won't even know they're AIP.

Ingredients

Spice Rub

  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper (stage 1 reintroduction)

Glaze

Instructions

  1. Thaw your truLOCAL ribs in the refrigerator overnight or
    defrost in their packaging in cold water.
  2. Preheat oven to 350F.
  3. Remove ribs from packaging and pat dry.
  4. Optional, but recommended: When preparing pork ribs, take a minute to remove the ‘silver skin’. This is a thin membrane on the underside of the rack. Simply slide a knife under the silver skin anywhere along the rack and peel it away. Go here for a simple tutorial that might just put a smile on your face!
    (We found that our truLOCAL ribs had very little silver skin.)
  5. Mix all spice rub ingredients together in a small bowl.
  6. Massage both sides of the ribs with the spice rub. Place ribs on a
    parchment lined baking sheet and tent (not wrap) with aluminum foil.
  7. Roast for 1 hour in a 350F degree oven.
  8. While ribs are roasting, combine all glaze ingredients in a small,
    heavy bottomed sauce pan, place over high heat and bring to a boil. Lower heat
    and simmer uncovered until mixture is reduced and slightly thickened,
    approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside.
  9. If you're serving AIP Grilled Vegetables along side your ribs, you can use this time to prep them. (Once it's time to grill the ribs, both the ribs and your veg can be grilled at the same time.)
  10. Remove ribs from oven after 1 hour, set aside.
  11. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high.
  12. Place ribs on the preheated grill and brush with glaze, allowing
    glaze to caramelize. Turn every few minutes continuing to brush with glaze.
    Reduce flame or move ribs to cooler spots on your grill to avoid burning or
    flareups. Continue basting and turning for approximately 3-5 minutes using all
    of your glaze or until ribs are thoroughly coated and caramelized.
  13. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Notes

This ribs can be cooked just in the oven if you don't have a BBQ or the weather isn't cooperating.
After 1 hour, the ribs are fully cooked. Simply brush with glaze and cook them under the broiler for 5 minutes, brush with more glaze and broil for 5 minutes more allowing the glaze to caramelize. Keep close watch that they don't burn.
